I am 12-14 DPO as track using CM so can never be 100% sure. We have been TTC #1 for ages and I have been pretty calm about it for the past few months, haven't even been on MN! But this month I have gone bananas all over again. Can't put myself through the disappointment of yet another BFN so am trying not to POAS until at least Wednesday! My fake symptoms so far are:
Burning boobs - although I have been squeezing them lots to check if they are sore 
No pink tinge when I wipe which would normally have happened by now
Feel knackered
Had terrible cramps on 7-9DPO and then dull cramps ever since
Please someone join me so that I don't have to go quietly insane by myself

Hi chocoloulou glad i'm not alone, i've been googling and apparently there is an 82% chance a BFP would show up at 12 DPO so FX for you! If I still have no pinkness 2moro I think i'll buy a test, nothing can be worse than this limbo 
I've also realised i've had indigestion the last 2 days but I have switched onto apple & cinnamon tea so could be that ha ha!
Anyone else out there want to SS with us?

hello yes I'll join you, I am totally feeling the crazy this month!. AF due 31st/1st but am also v tempted to POAS tomorrow. I'm usually of the 'wait until AF is due' school of thinking, but I think i'd;like to get in there ahead of her this month! Had loads of imaginary symptoms so far, including tiredness, lots of saliva, cramps, and the best one - feeling a baby kick in my dream the other night?!
fx for you both!

Hello apperley and ipswich it really helps to hear from others feeling the same as me 
We've been trying for over 2 years choc but have taken it easy the past 6 months as it was grinding us down. We're getting married in September so a BFP this month would make me 8 months gone on my wedding day 
Haven't shared my hopes with DP as would love the got drunk and shagged/surprise announcement a couple of weeks later scenario with not a mention of ov, opks, cm, to poas/not to poas etc etc
Planning to buy a test on my way home 2moro night and test using fmu on Tues am, good luck to anyone testing 2moro fx

Hi all, sorry to hear about the BFNs but like serious says, it's not over until it's over!
I am still the same, went to Asda on the way home to buy a test and it was like mission impossible, there were two other people in there from my work and one of them spent a suspiciosly long time choosing painkillers which are right by the pg tests 
anyway, had to hide out in the magazine aisle and keep peering round to see if she had gone...think the security guard had me pegged as a shoplifter/mugger
Just hope I don't bottle it tomorrow, tomorrow I will be 14-16 DPO and at this point even a BFN would be better than continuing limbo, surely?

tea I've done the lurking round the corner thing when trying to buy pregnancy tests! Seems like people you know are just stalking you when you're trying to be all incognito about it!
these bfn's suck, and the limbo sucks just as much. People in RL keep saying to "relax and forget about it" which makes me . Trouble is, they know we're ttc as I had a mmc last November

ipswich it's a nightmare isn't it, I actually bought a magazine so that I had something to hide the tests under in my basket!! Sorry to hear about your mmc though, it must be hard that people know now. Luckily DP and I have got all our nearest & dearest convinced that we're not interested ready which is a bit sneaky!
choc the doctors have offered us tests but we keep putting it off, I think we're both hoping that it will all happen naturally but frankly I think we probably need to pull our heads out of the sand [sigh]
My cramping has got a bit stronger today which I don't have a great feeling about. Ah the age old cure for late AF, fork out for a pg test and she arrives immediately
